Are teams still recieveing shipment of the new control system?

[martin417]

Well, today is the last day they can ship our system and reasonably expect it to arrive before the holidays. Next week is finals week, so the kids are going to be busy all week. We still haven't received shipment or notification. Hope is beginning to fade. The best we can expect is for the team to be able to do some work over the holidays to get up and running before kick-off. That will only be possible if the system arrives before they close the school for the holidays.

WOOT! just got a call. System arrived 10 minutes ago... no notice that it was on the way...

Wow, just in time!

We just got ours today too! Man i'm so excited!

I can't see it until monday though, I'm at work all day

Our coach got the e-mail yesterday. Come on, Monday!

Hmmm.... The website shows the package's last checked-in point. How long would it take to drive to Syracuse and intercept it?

Got a call today from FIRST stating my team's control system shipment was rejected for reasons unknown. Can't say I'm terribly pleased. But I was told though it's going to be included in the KOP...so hopefully it's in there when I pick it up on Kickoff!

Yeah!!
We wouldn't want your any obstacles to your team creating a robot early and providing us with a teaser video again!
That was just pure inspiration to numerous teams.

1745 still no word . . Im hoping that the reason for the delay is gift wrap. but really Im just hoping that they dont ship it too late for the high school to be out of session and a box with ~$5000 worth of robotics stuff just sits there for a few weeks.


whats worse is news from 1817 they had there money and pre ship as one of the first teams, they also have not gotten word.

Hahaha...so perhaps our control system was intercepted? That would just be devious

Early Christmas Present

Edit: Meezy do your work...lol he is the most excited out of all of them

it will come our control system just came yesturday and we didnt even get notice

[Ted Weisse]

Our package was received yesterday with no notice. If it comes down to someone at FIRST sending me a shipping notice over spending the time to ship another system out to another team, we would gladly go without the email. Thank you FIRST for all you do and we look forward to this years game.
